PRECAUTIONS & SAFETY DIRECTIONS
PRECAUTIONS & SAFETY DIRECTIONS:
- Read entire label, SDS & technical bulletin before using;
- Wear appropriate skin & eye protection & use in a ventilated area;
- Surface must be clean, dry & free from any sealers & coatings;
- Use when surface temperature is between 4°C and 32°C;
- Do NOT allow sealer to drip or leave drip marks on the surface;
- Do NOT use on underside of tile or stone;
- Do NOT allow product to dry on the surface – remove excess;
- NOTE: Once a surface has been enhanced it CANNOT be restored to original look.
PRE-GROUT SEALING
PRE-GROUT SEALING:
- For quick & easier clean-up after grouting as the porous surface may stain during installation and grouting.
- Pre-seal the front/top surface before installation or 24 hours after installation. Do NOT saturate the open grout joints;
- Allow minimum 24 hours cure time before grouting;
- If using dark or contrasting grout, apply Grout Release Pro™ after Enhance’N’Seal™ has cured, then grout.
PREPARATION OF SURFACE
PREPARATION OF SURFACE:
Use XtremeClean as per label instructions to clean and prepare surface to be sealed.
HOW TO USE
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
- Sweep, vacuum or wipe surface;
- Apply sealer to clean, dry surface using a sealer applicator, sealer sponge, brush, paint roller or paint pad;
- Ensure even coat & coverage then work product in thoroughly;
- After 5-10 minutes, wipe the surface COMPLETELY DRY with absorbent paper or cotton towels to remove any excess;
- DO NOT ALLOW PRODUCT TO DRY ON THE SURFACE;
- Repeat this process for each application;
APPLICATION NOTES:
- For vertical surfaces apply bottom to top and avoid rundown;
- Porous surfaces will require additional coats. If 2 or more coats are required, allow minimum 30 minutes between coats;
- 2 hours after the final coat, conduct a test to determine if the surface is properly sealed. Apply a few water droplets to the surface. If the water is easily absorbed then apply an additional coat of sealer. Wait 2 hours and repeat the test.
- The surface is ready for light traffic after 2 hours. Keep dry for minimum 24 hours. Full cure in minimum 24 hours.
LIMITATIONS
LIMITATIONS:
Sealer is NOT a waterproofing agent and will NOT prevent surface wear or etching from harsh or acidic chemicals.
EXPECTED WEAR
EXPECTED WEAR:
Enhancement, performance & wear will vary depending on the characteristics, texture & hardness of surface, traffic wear plus frequency and type of maintenance products used. Weather exposure, harsh cleaning methods like pressure washing, use of high alkaline, acidic cleaners or solvents will affect enhancement, wear & performance. High use & exterior areas may require more frequent applications. RE-SEAL AS NECESSARY.
MAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCE:
- EzyClean™ for routine, everyday cleaning;
- Boost™ for routine cleaning & help prolong sealer life span;
- XtremeClean™ for periodic heavy duty cleaning
HANDLING & STORAGE
HANDLING, STORAGE & CLEAN UP:
- Close container tightly after each use;
- Store in original container between 4°C & 32°C. Shelf life is approx 1 year in unopened container – less after opening;

- Spills should be wiped up immediately to help minimise staining.
NOTE:
- Once enhanced, surfaces CANNOT be restored to original appearance.
- Shelf life is approximately 1 year in un-opened container.
- Storage beyond that time does not necessarily mean the product is not usable. Do a small test area first.
- Product may harden or gel in container if not stored correctly or past shelf life. Discard and do not use.
TEST FIRST:
- Due to the nature of different surfaces, you should do several test areas in inconspicuous areas according to the label instructions to determine number of coats, surface colour stability and desired results. The end user must determine the suitability of the product for their intended use.
